Dear Manager,
Please be advised that EMEA securities regulators have jointly decided to end their short-selling bans, citing less turbulent market conditions.
As a result, the previously applied short-sell restrictions for EMEA markets have been lifted, and shorts are available again for the following markets:
- Brussels
- Madrid
- Milan
- Paris
- Vienna
For more information, please read the MarketWatch article on the topic.
Remember, you can request shorts on IRC (in the #shorts channel), via email (to Trade Desk), and in Metro (Pay For Short Management process).

| MA | XMAD | Madrid Sweep | |
